Well knowing that the life span before a rebuild is a little different from a v8. I wanna make sure that the engine will not have a major failure that will cause me heartache and more money then its worth. cause my next project is my 75 f250 and finding a basket case HD bagger

So, It will need a rebuild kit. But that was not what was causing the problem for the throttle flat spot and the left cylinder quitting out. It was suffering from the "Dodge Idiot Box" syndrome (voltage regulator/rectifier.....another reason to hate dodge even more :D.) I'll post 2 videos once i...

I got it all cleaned. Left my manual at my apt -_- I'll be putting em back together today after work and see how she goes *crosses fingers*.All the passageways and jet ports got a major cleaning I also sprayed the jets and cleaned them. on a side note it felt awkward as hell boiling the carbs on...

Starting to soak em in boiling water. Pulled all the jets but one as I cannot find my mini set of screw drivers to remove the tiny jet and I don't wanna damage it. I just gotta make sure it gets cleaned big time.other jets look clean other then a white tarnish to the surface of them.

Its similar, looks like an older set. Yea the sonic cleaning should get all that crap for me ( dunno if my dad took them in yet.) If not i will do what your suggesting. then afterwards if things still persist, I'll install a kit. Edit: to mention it....I noticed when i took the carbs apart down...

I had this problem with the flat spot when i first got the bike. It's either the Carb or ignition coil. Cause with the stock exhaust and breather box it still had the flat spot revving it up at idle (forget the start of the flat spot RPM atm.) It also when under load the cylinder wasn't firing...

K, I'm sending em off to get sonic cleaned on Monday. If I still have the flat spot after the cleaning, I will get the rebuild kit. But I will be getting 2 vacuum gauges first and make sure they are synchronized properly before I drop the money on a rebuild kit. while I wait for that I've...

Will do Bruno, gonna be taking em apart tomorrow after work. Gonna check to see if everything is in spec, make sure all the seals are in good shape.....etc etc lol.

Quick update. I've finally dealt with the straight pipes lol ( even tho I'd love to keep it that way) I have determined the problems i was having at the august long weekend party we took the bike to so i could ride it and figure out any problems with it. It's been the carb's..... Not sync'd the...

Yea, i hear ya there is some like that here. I know for sure we have to have helmets, both mirrors, i forget the exact bar height measurement........ Pipe decibels (which is total Bullshit. loud pipes save lives.) Signal lights you supposedly can get away with because you can use hand signals...

Nice bars lol! If they do bother me i will prob just end up bending my own, due to Ontario law there is a limit on bar height so lol.... Trying to avoid the harassment for now. 1 day left before the biker party but here she is at the end of the night. Rained ALL damn afternoon and evening but...

Thanks guy's! So this weekend were going away to our annual august long weekend party. So the bike isn't at the stage of full completion were getting it running and doing a test run with it while we are there. Will give us the chance to do some carb adjustment's and/or re-jet. Got the wires all...

A peek at whats to come.

Gonna skip all the boring photos of my first time doing body work and show the good stuff =D. The bike is nearing completion

Sorry about uploading. Sad news came up, my grandfather passed away at 87 just shy of his 88th bday and I have just finished up with all the family stuff and funeral. I have been keeping up my work on the bike. The rear fender is at the last stage of body work before paint. I will post photos...

Update. Just finished up going to the swap meet in Paris Ontario this past weekend and got a few things. I had to find a replacement headlight as from what my dad and i figured the glue and rubber had deteriorated sitting in the sheet metal shed over last summer and melted all over the lens...

So it's been awhile since I've touched the bike. As I just finished school in may. I've got alot more progress done on the bike (pictures later.) I've had a few changes with the bike. It will no longer be blue and white but a gloss black and matte black scheme. I was working on it today. But my...
